The process of installing a new theme for your WordPress has changed rather drastically since the inception of the latest WordPress version. There is actually a program that can do this for you automatically in WordPress, but a little manual manipulation always renders the best results. There are three easy steps to follow in installing the theme that you want. Just follow them to the best of your abilities and you should have no problems!

Get the Theme That You Want

The first thing that you would have to do in installing a theme that you want is simply to download the WordPress theme that you want. The whole process can be either simple or difficult, depending on how you choose on WordPress themes. If you choose from the set of themes from WordPress itself, you will have an easier time as all you would have to do is take a look at the galleries that they have. You could also look for other themes from other reputable sites for these themes, but the problem is that you will have to take the time to look for them. Anyway, whatever you choose all you have to do is download the theme and save the zip into your computer.

2. Upload the file to WordPress

The next thing you need to do is to simply upload the file to your WordPress. It may seem simple, but please bear in mind that there are only specific places that you can load it from. What you need in these situations is to utilize an FTP client, which you should connect to a hosting account. Just connect it to the location of your WordPress URL and upload the theme file into the themes directory, under the wp-content folder. It may seem hard to grasp when you read it, but I promise you that it is actually much simpler than it sounds.

3. Utilize the Theme to Your WordPress Administrator Panel

The last step is to go to your administrator panel. You should then look for the tab labeled Presentation. It is at this point where you should be able to see the theme that you had just uploaded. From here all you have to do is click the tab with the chosen theme and WordPress uploads it to be the theme for your site.

As you can see, the whole process is actually quite easy. All you have to do is basically find a theme that you want and save it to your computer. You should then use an FTP client site and upload it to the corresponding directory. Then you just access the administrator panel and utilize the theme so that it will be the one that will be used. Just take the time to take in all the information and take things one step at a time.
